This double-insulated power tool is equipped with a polarized plug (one contact is wider than the other). The plug will only fit into the polar- ized socket outlet in one position. Turn the plug if it does not fit completely into the socket out- let. If the plug still does not fit, have a qualified electrician install a polarized socket outlet. Do not modify or alter the plug under any circum- stances. Double-insulated power tools nei- ther require a three-core power cable nor a power connection with ground contact.

Operate the power tool only off power supplies whose voltage and frequency values corre- spond with the values on the type plate of the power tool.

If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Using special rubber protective gloves and footwear increases your own safety.

NOTE: Such a device is also known as ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) or earth leak- age circuit breaker (ELCB).

Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.

Before mounting or replacing application tools or accessories, pull the power plug. This pre- ventive safety measure rules out the danger of injuries through accidental starting of the power tool.

Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area or call the local utility company for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explo- sion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may cause an electric shock.

Do not direct the power tool against yourself, other persons or animals. Danger of injury from sharp or hot application tools.

Do not rivet or screw any name-plates or signs onto the power tool. If the insulation is dam- aged, protection against an electric shock will be ineffective. Adhesive labels are recom- mended.

Always work using the auxiliary handle. The auxiliary handle ensures reliable guidance of the power tool.

Before putting into operation, check the main connection and the main plug for damage.

Handling hazardous dusts

WARNING When working with power tools, such as when grinding,

sanding, polishing, sawing or for other work procedures where material is removed, dusts develop that are both hazardous to one’s health and can spontaneously combust or be explo- sive.

Contact with or inhaling some dust types can trigger allergic reactions to the operator or bystanders and/or lead to respiratory infec- tions, cancer, birth defects or other repro- ductive harm.

Examples of such materials and therein con- tained chemicals, where hazardous dusts can develop when working them, are:

Asbestos and materials containing asbestos;

Lead-containing coatings, some wood types such as beech and oak;

Minerals and metal;

Silicate particles from bricks, concrete and other materials containing stone;

Solvent from solvent-containing paint/var- nish;

Arsenic, chromium and other wood pre- servatives;

Materials for pesticide treatment on boot and ship hulls.

To minimise the unwanted intake of these materials:

Use dust extraction matched appropriately for the developing dust.

Use personal protective equipment, such as a P2 filter-class dust protection mask.

Provide for good ventilation of the work- place.
